Seven years after my death, the male protagonist of the substitute novel was criticized

Chapter 18 is a mature and sexy brother

Thanks to the love soup that he specially made last night, Pei Yizhou was in a calm and stable mood the next day. He was calm and friendly when he met with Xu Jiayan and others.

Xu Jiayan guessed what was going on, followed him back to the office, and asked quietly: "Did our sister treat you well?"

Pei Yizhou glanced at him and said calmly while typing on the keyboard: "I will leave work early this afternoon. You can take care of it if anything happens."

"Okay, the boss doesn't require attendance anyway. It's different when there's someone at home. I'm already thinking about leaving get off work as soon as I get to work. But why do you go home so early?"

"Go back and make soup." Pei Yizhou said casually, his eyes focused on the computer.

Xu Jiayan: "...You are truly a respectable cook."

He glanced at the general manager's office across the street, crossed one leg and leaned against the three-meter-long desk. After thinking for a while, he leaned forward with his elbow, leaned in closer and whispered, "How are you guys doing now?"

"very good."

"Which is better? A carefree life as a brother and sister, or more than friends but less than lovers? If it's the former, you're almost suffocating, right?"

How could he not understand Pei Yizhou? In the past few years since Lin Lu passed away, he had tortured himself into a lifeless widower, and the only thing he lacked was to wear a white flower on his ear to announce that he would mourn for his wife for thirty years.

After finally getting him back, I still had to pretend to be an honest brother with a bleeding heart. During this time when I couldn't touch him, I couldn't sleep well at night.

Pei Yizhou stopped typing, raised his eyelids and looked at him coldly: "Are you curious?"

Xu Jiayan: "I am concerned about you. You are afraid of irritating her, so you have been pretending to be pure and indifferent recently, and you dare not take more than one step. But now is the Internet society, and students holding hands on the streets of 18th-tier towns may be photographed. Even if few people know about your relationship with her, there must be some clues. She will know sooner or later."

Pei Yizhou pushed away the computer and leaned back in his boss chair, his face calm: "So what good ideas do you have?"

"I can't say I have an idea, but I'm not as restrained as you. From a third-party perspective, I can make some suggestions." Xu Jiayan said the words of the censor and made the expression of a eunuch, squinting his eyes.

"Look, time travel is something that no one can control at the moment. You might as well just assume that there will be no side effects and start thinking about your future life. For example, how did you turn the sibling relationship into a romantic one? Do the same thing now. Lin Lu traveled through time, not was possessed. She was moved back then, and she is still moved now. When your relationship is restored to what it was before, when you talk about Antarctica, it will be a touching story of a loving husband who waited for seven years, not a criminal investigation story of a lustful, evil brother who is suspected of killing an innocent sister."

The word "killed" kept rolling around in his mouth like a pot, and he didn't dare to say it clearly.

After saying this, he felt that this idea was simply genius, and even the director of the Qixi movie was not as good as him in designing it.

Unfortunately, Pei Yizhou was unmoved, and strongly disagreed with some of the four words he said, and glared at him.

"When signing a contract, we would never take it for granted that unexpected events might occur. Besides, she is more important than the contract. If you have time, you can develop a side business. I won't report you to the HR department."

Xu Jiayan's advice was not accepted, and he left the office with a regretful expression. Before leaving, he greeted Lin Lu at the door of the general manager's office.

Seeing the beautiful head popping out from behind the twisting dragonfly, he felt a little relieved.

After taking the elevator to leave the office building, Xu Jiayan looked back at the seventh floor, then raised his eyebrows and smiled strangely - he didn't believe that Pei Yizhou didn't hear a word. The man was cursed for what happened to Lin Lu. At the peak of his life, he was so superstitious that he spent millions to beg for souls. Now that he was next to him, could he resist getting close to him?

I don't believe that Lang is devoted to Buddhism, nor do I believe that Pei Yizhou only wants to be Lin Lu's biological brother.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Pei Yizhou left work early and sent a message to Lin Lu, reminding her to go home for dinner after get off work.

[Didn’t you say you wanted to eat spicy scallops a few days ago? I’ll go home and make it. Remember to come back early.]

Lin Lu replied quickly: [Received! ]

Pei Yizhou could imagine her pretending to be honest while answering these two words, but actually making faces. On the way to the parking lot, she continued chatting with a smile on her face and her head down.

[Not serious about work? ] Lin Lu: [You are wrongly accusing a good person, boss. I have always been serious! I was worried that you would be anxious if you didn’t receive a reply]

[Yes, I am anxious. Remember to come back early.]

Lin Lu: [I know, brother.]

He walked to the parking lot just after sending the message. The corners of his mouth raised slightly when he got into the car. He started the car cleanly and shifted into gear.

The living facilities around Tanghu Mansion are well-equipped. The supermarket is owned by one of the owners, and the food is always fresh and clean.

However, before this, Pei Yizhou seldom went to the supermarket, and he had probably flown to Antarctica more times than this, so it was the first time he realized that the supermarket was still rushing to serve the dishes before the end of the working day.

He waited patiently for the newly delivered fresh scallops. After purchasing all the ingredients, on the way to checkout he saw a sign in the sugarcane area saying that they could be used to make soup, moisturize the lungs and warm the body, so he went over to buy some.

It just so happened that the fruit section was also stocked with large quantities of goods, and a clerk put up a sign in the area where the oranges were displayed, which read "Lianjiang Red Oranges Newly Available".

His eyes suddenly fixed on the oranges, with a puzzled look on his face. He asked the clerk next to him, "Is this the new fruit that was just put on the shelves today? It wasn't sold a few days ago?"

Shop assistant: "The goods only arrived at 3 pm. We didn't sell them before because we thought that they might not be sweet enough due to lack of time."

Really? Then where did you buy those red oranges at home yesterday?

Pei Yizhou took an orange in his hand, stared at it silently, put it down after a moment, smiled and said to the clerk that it would be better to buy some sugarcane.

There are so many supermarkets in the city center, it doesn’t matter if Lin Lu doesn’t buy here. He shouldn’t interfere too much. Moreover, if he asks her in front of her, it will only make her feel that she is being controlled too strictly.

Not worth the candle.

After buying things and returning home, Pei Yizhou took off his suit and prepared to change into home clothes, but he stopped for a while halfway, went back to turn up the air conditioner temperature in the living room, and still wore a white shirt and went into the kitchen.

When Lin Lu returned home, the aroma of the spicy scallop meat was so strong that she could smell it in the corridor. She hurriedly changed her shoes and went in without even putting down her bag. She took a deep breath in the living room first.

"It smells so good!"

Then go to the kitchen and actively offer to help.

"Let me serve the soup. There's actually sugarcane in it. Can this thing be used to make soup?" She went to get the soup spoon, and they stood side by side at the kitchen counter.

Pei Yizhou freed up one hand to hold her down, his cool fingertips touching the back of her hand, his voice a little low in this not very spacious space: "It's hot, just go sit down."

Lin Lu's back of her hand suddenly felt like it was burned by fire. After a moment of discomfort, she gave up the task of serving the soup and went to get a plate for the spicy scallop meat.

Standing by and waiting for the dish to come out of the pot, her eyes naturally wandered from the pot to Pei Yizhou - they were a little close, their shadows blocked part of the light, and the dividing line between dark and light moved on his arms and white shirt, and her eyes followed it.

Only then did she notice that Pei Yizhou's exposed arms were very firm and beautiful, with faint blue veins extending all the way to the back of his hands, which turned into slightly bulging blue veins when he easily picked up the pot and shook it.

He is a mature and sexy brother.
